warreplica British WW1 Long Puttees/British Wool Leggings Wraps / WW1 British Leg Wraps Gear- Historical Reproduction Military Gaiters for Authentic World War I Uniform Costume or Collectors Display

I bought these four years ago when I first started to put together my reenactment kit and have had no reason to replace them! I came back to buy a second pair now just to have as a backup or for a second kit. These are good quality and durable and make a nice solid wrap around your legs!

I use them for hiking and I like them! What can I say.

I wore these Elk hunting this year. They kept stuff from getting up and into my boots and were absolutely quiet, as opposed to my kind of stiff gaiters. It's easy to let mud dry on them and then rub then together to make it fall off. I'll be using them for any field work where quiet is important and probably other use, due to the ease of cleaning.

These were exactly what son wanted for reenactments but they smelled almost unbearably musty

These are fantastic! Not as good as originals (do NOT machine wash (found that out the hard way) But I love these!

These are exactly what I ordered and what I was expecting. Nice, strong material, smoother than I would have assumed for wool, but I don't know wool very well. I think I wrapped them correctly and am very happy with my purchase!

These are very long, almost too long for me and my 30-inch inseam (they only go on your lower legs, but I wanted to give a comparison measure). They work *great* for my medieval reenactment group use as Scandinavian leg wraps. They are extra warm because I can wrap them closely with so much length, and they tie off or tuck in well to stay up very well through an all-day event. I love that they are washable wool - I don't have to worry about them holding onto mud stains or letting dampness seep through easily. I will use these a lot, was I live in a climate that has snow and ice or cold rain for half the year. They are perfect for what they are!

Picture me then on the Somme and mud, all the mud in the world. Step out and you were knee deep in mud, step back and you would find yourself neck deep in mud. All this and no mud in me old boots, Jerry got his socks wet but not I. Wrap them tight and they will do you no wrong.
